    Spark, plug wire resistance

    Are you actually using Taylor wire? Different wire, can be different resistance. "Back in the day" the "go to" universal cut-off figure for factory wires, used to be no more than 1000 ohms per foot, and I don't think I ever found any that high, unless just open. If possible, photos of...

    Electrical problems 73 duster

    Almost sounds like you put tension on the column harness connectors and damaged or pulled out some of the terminals. I would start there, both the ignition connector and the TS connector.

    Electrical problems 73 duster

    Is this automatic column shift? If so you likely got the neutral start switch linkage out of adjustment. Try holding the key to "start" and wiggle the shifter from park through neutral and back. Also if you do not have a shop manual, run over to MyMopar.com and download it, free. Some...

    Duster temp gauge problems

    All you can do is round up something to use for a test resistor. For a "quick" check, you could even heat a sensor up in water on the stove, then QUICKLY jumper it into the circuit and see if it reads upscale. You could also heat them up and quickly check their resistance compared...

    Duster temp gauge problems

    Start by checking the sensor resistance. Here are the standard test resistors for checking gauges: IE the sensor should kinda match these at cold and operating. You can tell if the sender is grounding by checking between the brass shell and the intake. Do NOT overtighten these...

    Don’t have a Degree Wheel. Problem solved

    The question is, how do you know it's accurate? This IS A serious question. Did you construct some angles, and what did you use to do that?

    Need wiring help 73 duster

    THIS!!! If you don't have the 2 manual volumes, run over to MyMopar and download them. Not all the connectors are there, but most. Take stuff that doesn't work one at a time and repost here, EG brake lights. The brake light switch should ALWAYS be hot and gets power from one of the...

    Any seen one of these before, or know if it was factory?

    None of the short (E body) or long (B body) pistol grips I've seen were that "straight." If you search something like 70 Cuda pistol grip you'll see what I mean.

    Any seen one of these before, or know if it was factory?

    There's always been a "preference argument" between shift balls and ball sizes vs T handle, and of course pistol grips. I had a 70 440-6RR, second owner, and LOVED that grip. For some reason I liked it way better than T handles. On an aside, the original owner, who I met in Navy...

    Amp Meter issues

    What you've experienced is IN PART (and only in part) of why there has been so much written about the ammeter circuit. There is more to it (many times) than just the ammeter. In general, the possible problems are: 1....Many times aggravated by the installation of a much larger...

    Magnum head drill fixture

    I think "blanket party" originated in the military. I only saw one. When I was in Navy electronics "A" school at Treasure Island, San Francisco, in 68-69, our dorm was all students in the same class. Those guys wanted to SLEEP with lights out. A transient was put in with us...

    Magnum head drill fixture

    I may be "forgotten." I think someone tested those against an Ed and the Ed won big. I think I've got one I bought used

    Fuel senders

    The other thing, there is a product called "meter match" but unfortunately it was recently bought out and the prices went up. There is also a similar product on ebay. Sorry, I don't have the info handy. You have to get into the dash wiring, and this device goes electrically between the...

    Magnum head drill fixture

    Not only that, but the LA holes ARE NOT perpendicular to the intake face, either. OP if you do a search and find a thread or two on here about this, there are some photos and such that might help to build one. I have thought and thought about this, but I soon turn 76, and I'm...

    Leakdown test on rebuilt engine

    Steve the so called standard is .040" There's more to it than that, if you find the original aircraft spec, it involves orifice entrance and exit angles and such, but close enough for us rednecks. My 1.99 thrift store TI scientific calc (solar LOL) says 3/64 is .0467. If you can...

    4 speed transmission id abody?

    It would be swell, when you ask questions such as this, if you'd actually post a photo. One larger than a postage stamp, and maybe one that actually shows the entire transmission. Hint: Cannot see the output Also, "the numbers" may or may not actually mean much. As old as these girls...

    Rethreading die 7/16-20 left and right hand

    Don't forget "thread files." They can be very useful. The old school "normal" thread file is rectangular overall, and squared into 4 working surfaces which are divided in the middle of the file, lengthwise. This gives you 8 separate surfaces, so each file can accomodate 8 different...

    SMS Auto not responding and now closed

    Not necessarily in the outfit's defense, but there's a lot of owners/ operators who are old enough (and a small enough business) that just about ANY medical or other emergency can be a disaster

    If you can't build one, make it sound like you did.

    Uh, well, until they run out of juice. and unlike real cars, you can't run a "can full of battery" out to it,either

    Remake of Vanishing point on youtoob.

    There are MANY Horrywood movies that should NEVER have been remade. One comes to mind, Jimmy Stewart, "Flight of the Phoenix." There is ONE movie that I liked both versions, and that was "True Grit."

    Just screwing around.

    If I live long enough, the 67 will have one of those fancy 4 speed autos. My converted Cummins is a 5 speed, but I routinely shift it withOUT using the clutch
